Yummy treats for Mama!

I recently had the opportunity to sample some Torani Flavored Syrups. You know, those cool looking bottles of flavorings behind the counter at your local Starbucks? They put the peppermint in your Peppermint Mocha and the pumpkin in your Pumpkin Latte.

I received two bottles – Sugar-Free Vanilla and one of Torani’s seasonal flavors: Pumpkin Pie.

Much as I’d like a cup of coffee to try them with, I just can’t figure out my husband’s old fashioned drip coffee maker, so I decided to see what other kind of tasty beverages I could make for myself.

First I tried a slug of the Pumpkin Pie flavor in a cup of ice-cold vanilla coconut milk – OMG!! It was like drinking a slice of pumpkin pie with whipped topping!! So creamy and pumpkin-y!

Then I poured a little applejuice and water and mixed that with a glug of the Pumpkin Pie and it tasted like Pumpkin Juice!! Just like they serve at Hogwarts!! (I’m sure all of you Harry Potter fans out there know what I mean!)

Tomorrow I’m going to buy some seltzer water and make pumpkin soda!

The Sugar-Free Vanilla, I’m sure is pretty good, but it has splenda (sucralose) in it, which I’ve heard information of concern about, so I’ve decided to give that one a pass.

But I did take a look at Torani’s website, and they have A LOT of interesting flavors including….BACON!! I am SO wanting to try that one out!

**I received two bottles of Torani Flavored Syrups from SheSpeaks for review as part of their “Torani’s Authentic Coffeehouse Flavor” Program. The opinions expressed in this post are my own honest opinions of my review experience and were not influenced in any way by Torani or SheSpeaks.

I think I will get myself a few of those bottles because they aren’t very expensive but still taste great I think! Also thanks for the great tips you gave. Keep on the good work!Linda recently posted..goedkoop parkeren schiphol
